LIFE MOMENTS
(or, drinks that pair well with...)

 

one’s first drink, ever

upon seeing Madame Récarmier by
Françoise Gérard for the very first time

being accepted to one of the finest
universtity programs in the country

the first time one picks a winner at over 10-1
(while skipping class)

being dismissed from one of the finest
university programs in the country

the final fitting of one’s
first bespoke, or made-to-measure
(or in any event very smart) suit

the first time
one's club wins The Cup
(or in any event a Cup)

a wedding (one’s own)

weddings (not one's own)

upon seeing a woman look at you
the way Gérard’s Madame Récarmier looks at you
for the very first time
